Nah, I researched it for days on the newsgroups, etc. and I know for sure you can't get true 5.1 or 6.1 out of any of the digital outputs (unless you are using Creative Labs speakers, which have a proprietary digital connector)

It downconverts it to 2 channels so you have to choose dolby pro logic on the receiver.

The only way for it to work is if your receiver has 5.1 (or higher) analog inputs, so you can connect all the analog outputs of the sound card directly into the receiver.

Still sounds good though as dolby pro logic. Would be nice to have the rear sound separation though.
